Occult Theory / Phylactery Protecting a Phylactery
## Known Theory
- [[Zormir Ketok]] proposed that [[Vhail's Blade|Vhail’s Blade]] is a phylactery or soul vessel linked to [[Q'ruhm|Q’ruhm]].
- Q’ruhm may also function as a second vessel or anchor.
- Each may preserve the other, preventing either from being permanently destroyed alone.
- If the theory is correct, Q’ruhm and the blade must be destroyed at the same moment.
- The many souls collected by the blade may be used as power rather than merely imprisoned.
